Playing a Magus since it looked interesting.

the game give these long winded explaination on what a skill/feat can do. but no explanaition on the game mechanic to use said skill.

specifically how i am supposed to cast and attack in same round.
how to use the 2nd level skll to combine touch spell with melee attack.

is there a manual somewhere that does expalin what keyboard or game action to implement these?

also there does not seem to be a way to stack actions/commands for a character

lots of micro management, yuck

I think you need to read carefully before shit posting. It clearly mentions that Melee touch spells can be channel through an attack giving you an attack extra with the spell casted, however its will Melee touch spells only. Unless you when the archer sub class that does range touch instead.

But that ignores the actual question, which is "how do you do that in the game?", Like, what specifically do you click on to accomplish this? Someone here isn't reading carefully, but it's not the OP.

The touch spell thing works just like it says While you are fighting cast a spell like shocking grasp on your target, and you will cast it while fightng and then it will fire through your weapon. it's pretty awsome.
The dual wepons casting thing , I'm not sure that works as stated. it's supposed to make a fast casting spell work as an off-hand weapon (with the usual two wepon penaties) you have to use spells that meet the casting time lmit . Or you stop fighting to cast. there really needs to be quick slots to set up the casting. the interface is really poorly designed and the lack of a manual is bluntly stupid.

What are you going on about. Did you click on the image attached to my previous post? I even took the time to circle the words in red. It is on the first line of Spellstrike, <when a Magus cast a spell with a "melee" range>.

It would have been perfectly fine if he came to the forums to ask about how the skill works and he can't find an explanation. However he came on the forum and blasted the game for his own incompetence.

The best thing is another poster did not see the entirety of my post or have a really hard time reading the words CIRCLED IN RED in the image and then proceed to shit post about my comment. You are right about someone here isn't reading carefully.

Shit poster supporting shit poster, typical.

I read your post and looked at your attachment very carefully. And I could still see the point that OP made. OP, in fact, specifically referred to the text that you highlighted.

Luckily, @Mastererrant answered the question.

Anyhow, relax. There's no need to turn the forum into a battle-zone.

Well I don't see the point he way putting across when the text clearly said when you cast a spell with melee touch. Does it need to hold your hand and say, click shocking grasp and click on target? Have gamers reach that level?

If you have played any cRPG like PoE, ToEE, NwN, Pool of Radiance, Baldur's Gate, I don't see why it is so hard to understand, it activates when you cast a spell with melee range.

Never intended it to be a warzone, like I mentioned, it's perfectly fine if you came to ask for explanation. However these days they come to flame so that they can get an answer.

Have a great life, sir.
I think its good place to post. My magus cast a touch spell and enemy gets atack of oprtunity and onoe shot die.
Was i wrong to asume it will be considerate normal wepon atack. Or I am doing somthing wrong. It just feels stupid if you use touch spell it provek atack of oportunity and you die. If it's true Magus is worst class ever. I hope i am doing somthing wrong please help.

Casting melee touch in close combat should NOT provoke AoP. That's interesting though if it happened. Did your guy cast the spell and try to run to its target around other combatants? Normally what i noticed, is that when you cast a melee touch, he will stand there and cast a spell (glowy hands) then run up and wack the guy. A successful hit then discharge into a glorious burst of damage albeit still to low...
